Elon Musk's AI startup rolled out Grok free version to certain users across the world. Know which users can get access to the AI chatbot in the future.
Austin, November 11: Elon Musk's social platform X is reportedly testing a free version of the Grok AI chatbot. So far, the xAI-developed chatbot was available for the X Premium and X Premium+ users. However, the limitations would end once the platform rolls it out for all the users.

Elon Musk's Grok AI chatbot has not been available to most users and according to a report by TechCrunch, X is preparing the free version of Grok. The report said that many users across the regions received the Grok free version and posted about it on the X platform. The title of the screenshots shared by the users included a short window for starting the conversation and "Try Grok for free now".
